Reviews
"Richard Chizmar knows his way around a frightening story...deeply unsettling...[he] blends reality and fantasy in a way that can only be described as intoxicating: heightening your emotions, blunting your skepticism, and luring you into trouble." -- Vanity Fair, "A deliciously chilling follow-up to Chasing the Boogeyman --suspenseful, unsettling, and absolutely compelling. I couldn't put it down." -- Meg Gardiner , #1 New York Times bestselling author, "Like its predecessor, Chasing the Boogeyman , this is a novel that masquerades as fact, and does so to startling effect, the reader never quite knowing what is fact and what is fiction. And like his friend and former co-author Stephen King, Chizmar is a master of capturing the horrors beneath the surface of suburbia. King would certainly approve here--this is stunning." -- Daily Mail (UK), "Richard Chizmar has pulled off one hell of a sequel, delivering the rare thriller that is truly original and unlike anything else you'll read this year. While the tension is high and the chills plentiful, it is the human heart of the book that lingers once the tale is told." -- Michael Koryta , New York Times bestselling author of An Honest Man, "Chizmar's vast talents as a masterful and singular storyteller are on full display in Becoming the Boogeyman --an ingenious, terrifying, and supremely suspenseful novel that seeks answers for the roots of evil and obsession, while remaining grounded in humanity and a love for family and friendship. It has the ring of classic horror and suspense while remaining wholly original. A must-read." -- Eric Rickstad , New York Times bestselling author of I Am Not Who You Think I Am, " Becoming the Boogeyman is Richard Chizmar at his most original and creative. A book that is as fun as it is smart and scary. I love the Boogeyman books so much!" -- Caroline Kepnes , New York Times bestselling author of You, " Becoming the Boogeyman is a compulsive, utterly immersive twist of fact and fiction. Richard Chizmar masterfully blends reality and imagination to deliver something wholly original and totally gripping from start to finish. I couldn't stop turning the pages, even when I wanted to turn away. Don't miss this edge-of-your seat chiller that will keep you guessing--and guessing again." -- Lisa Unger , New York Times bestselling author, "Sinuous and twisting and utterly unputdownable, Becoming the Boogeyman slices deep from the start and twists the knife until the very end. I was terrified, moved, and gripped by turns. A tour de force." -- Catriona Ward, "Chizmar's Becoming the Boogeyman , a uniquely blended tale of fact and fiction, has you asking yourself, did this really happen? And even if it didn't, it feels like it could, and that will chill you to the bone." -- Linwood Barclay , New York Times bestselling author of The Lie Maker

Synopsis
The "worthy and frightening sequel" (Stephen King) to the acclaimed and "unforgettable" (Harlan Coben) New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling novel Chasing the Boogeyman . Back in the summer of 1988, a young Richard Chizmar was catapulted into the center of a living nightmare as the serial killer Joshua Gallagher--dubbed by the media as "The Boogeyman"--stalked his tranquil Maryland town. A lot has changed in the intervening years. These days, Chizmar enjoys a certain level of celebrity and notoriety himself, being the only person that an incarcerated Josh Gallagher will speak to on or off the record. Chizmar likes to believe that he's doing the world a public service by visiting Gallagher in prison, as there are plenty of other nameless victims out there who Gallagher might finally admit to killing and bring closure to grieving loved ones, and a dark rhythm and routine begin to take hold. But Chizmar eventually finds there's a price to be paid for dancing with the devil, when a masked figure with all the hallmarks of Gallagher's reign of terror from thirty years ago now leaves a horrifying calling card in front of Chizmar's home, and it's clear there's a new player on the board in the ongoing game that the Boogeyman controls... A riveting, haunting sequel to the New York Times bestselling thriller Chasing the Boogeyman , this is a tale of obsession and the adulation of evil, exploring modern society's true crime infatuation with unflinching honesty, sparing no one from the glare of the spotlight. Will those involved walk away from the story of a lifetime in order to keep their loved ones safe? Or will they once again be drawn into a killer's web? As the story draws to its shattering conclusion, only one person holds all the answers--and he just may be the most terrifying monster of them all.
